Conroy, Rick
Entry updated 9 January 2023. Tagged: Author.
Working name of UK author Richard Conroy (? - ), best known for his Westerns as by Duke Montana, and for historical Westerns as by Scott Jefferson. He was also active around 1950 as an author of routine Space Operas, almost certainly being responsible for three titles as by Lee Stanton: Mushroom Men of Mars (1951), Seven to the Moon (1951) and Report from Mandazo (1951). Under his own name he wrote Mission from Mars (1952) and Martians in a Frozen World (1952); that so much of his work relates to Mars seems adventitious, as none of these titles are connected. [JC]
